A peek into the magic of Tomorrowland

September 2024

Meanwhile, summer is behind us, and we eagerly look forward to autumn, which is packed with great shows and events. But first, a trip to São Paulo for Tomorrowland Brasil in a few days. There is also a lot of Tomorrowland Foundation news. The Tomorrowland Foundation team visited Charles Lachaux in France for an exciting new project (more info soon), a new toolkit was presented with the Mobile School, Alan Walker visited the Music & Arts School in India, and a new school in Itu (São Paulo) will open on October 10.

ALAN WALKER VISITS TOMORROWLAND FOUNDATION MUSIC & ARTS SCHOOL IN INDIA

Last Friday (September 27) was a special one for the kids at the Tomorrowland Music and Arts School in India as Norwegian artist, Alan Walker, visited the location. The students performed live music, dance, and a flash mob to Alan Walker x Pritam's newly-released song ‘Children of the Sun '. Later, students from the school showcased their DJ sets, and Alan joined them, before performing his own set. After the performances, he offered limited guestlist to some of the kids for the Sunburn Arena show.

LIVE, LOVE, UNITE TOOLKIT

To further enhance their long-term collaboration, the Tomorrowland Foundation and Mobile School are proudly launching a new educational toolkit designed for children and young people worldwide. ​

The toolkit revolves around Tomorrowland’s core values: daring to be yourself (LIVE), respect for yourself and others (LOVE), and the importance of working together (UNITE ). These values are explained interactively and accessibly through engaging videos and challenges presented by legendary DJs such as NERVO, Armin van Buuren, Lost Frequencies, GORDO, MATTN, Amber Broos, Henri PFR, Netsky, Andromedik, Kölsch, Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano, and AFROJACK. ​

The LIVE, LOVE, UNITE Toolkit is not only distributed among the 70 Mobile School partners operating in 37 countries but is also available for free to anyone working with children and young people. Youth workers, teachers, and educators can easily download and use the toolkit to engage with young people aged 8 to 15. It is available in Dutch, English, and Spanish, making it accessible worldwide.

WE ARE TOMORROW DOCUMENTARY

The new documentary We Are Tomorrow ​ was launched in São Paulo, during a festive premiere with Vintage Culture in attendance. The documentary We Are Tomorrow is available for everyone, worldwide. You can watch it here.

Vintage Culture: “Tomorrowland has touched the lives of millions of people around the world. I’m proud to be one of them. This documentary gives us an inside look at the spirit of the Tomorrowland festival and the positive impact it has on so many. It’s a behind the scenes view of the artists, fans and the team that makes it all work. When I was a kid, the dream of playing at Tomorrowland filled me with hope. Finally performing on the Mainstage was a dream come true. Thank you Tomorrowland for the amazing memories and so many more to come!”
